Share

I am 9 Days late, I have never had a late period give or take a day or 2 never this long. I am experiencing severe lower back pain some cramping, nausea, rise in body temp, and sore breast. I have taken 2 pregnancy tests. They both were negative but I did take them in the afternoon and not in the morning. Today is Thursday and I took 1 on Monday and the other on Wednesday. When should I take another test? I want to get a positive result before consulting a doctor. This will/is my first pregnancy I am 20yrs old and I have no health insurance. Please help.

You may or may not be pregnant. Sometimes periods are late/skipped for other reasons too, with stress being the most common reason. Sometimes early in a pregnancy there is not enough hormone in the urine yet for the test to pick it up. Wait a few days and if your period doesn't come, test again. Good luck. Btw, if you are pregnant and don't have much money, you can get on Medicaid if you are in the USA.
